Marry a female star at a bargain price

Chapter 23. Han Xixi wants to go home
Finally made it to Friday when I got off work.

Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that if he didn't rest, he would die.

It is already difficult to go to work during normal days, and the working days after the seven-day National Day holiday are even more difficult.

Now Lin Xiao just wants to quickly return to his home, order some takeout, get some snacks, and then play some games and watch some short videos to spend two meaningless days.

However, the reality did not allow him to do as he wished.

Just as he was about to leave with his bag, Liu Liyun sent him a WeChat message, asking him to come over for dinner in the evening.

"Uh... Director!"

Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment and replied, "I still have a rectification report to finish, which is due on Monday, so I have to work overtime tonight..."

Liu Liyun quickly replied: "No matter how important the work is, you still have to eat. Go home first and find time to write on the weekend!"

The sound of a car starting can also be heard in the voice.

Lin Xiao looked hopeless, thinking, "Do I still have to write it on the weekend?"
Although he had finished writing, he still felt very unhappy about his mother-in-law's generosity towards others.

……

The unit is only four kilometers away from Geely Garden where Liu Liyun lives.

Lin Xiao rode a shared electric bike and arrived in ten minutes, which was faster than Liu Liyun's car. After he parked the car and entered the community, Liu Liyun drove the car and arrived.

The two of them went upstairs together.

Liu Liyun asked: "How did you get on the electric bike? Isn't Xixi's bike at your place? Why don't you drive it?"

Lin Xiao laughed and said, "That car is too high-profile. I can't afford it at my level. My colleagues will talk about me!"

Liu Liyun thought about it and realized that this was true.

After all, they work in the same unit, and colleagues know everyone's family background. If Lin Xiao suddenly drives a Mercedes to work, everyone would be shocked and might even suspect that he has embezzled money.

Besides, the car was red, and it was obvious that it was driven by a girl, so it would not be convenient for Lin Xiao to drive.

Liu Liyun took this matter to heart and didn't say much at the time.

Entered the house.

Han Haijun hasn't come back yet, Liu Liyun washes her hands and cooks, and Lin Xiao goes to help.

Seeing him wash and cut vegetables very skillfully, you can tell at a glance that he really knows how to do it and is not just pretending.

Liu Liyun was even more satisfied with this home-loving son-in-law.

With the cooperation of the two, they quickly prepared three dishes and a soup, and then made a plate of cold dishes, and the table was full and very sumptuous.

Han Haijun just arrived home and the three of them started eating.

"Xiao Lin, eat more. You look so thin!" Liu Liyun's face was full of pity and she kept putting meat on his plate.

"Mom, I'm not thin at 140 pounds!" Lin Xiao said with a smile.

Liu Liyun said sternly, "You are a big guy, 140 meters tall, but only weigh kilograms. Isn't that thin? Xixi, that damn girl, wants to be an artist and maintain her figure. I can't control her. It's okay for you to eat more!"

Lin Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He could only hold the bowl to accept his mother-in-law's kindness and watch a small mountain of food pile up in front of him.

Han Haijun was laughing beside him.

The couple were both genuinely happy; it had been a long time since they had such a normal meal at home.

Both of them are busy with work.

Especially Han Haijun, he usually either works overtime at the company or has dinner parties, and he rarely has the opportunity to eat at home.

Even when I got home, my daughter wasn't there.

The couple often got along casually, not as happy as they are now. They looked more like a family of three than with Han Xixi.

After dinner, Lin Xiao took the initiative to wash the dishes.

Liu Liyun refused to let him go and sent him to chat with Han Haijun. Lin Xiao had no choice but to obey.

Han Haijun made tea in the living room, and when he saw him coming, he brought him a cup.

"Thank you, Dad!" Lin Xiao said in a normal tone, and he felt that the more he called them "parents", the more comfortable he became.

Han Haijun nodded, his face full of joy.

The father-in-law and son-in-law were sipping tea, looking very comfortable.

"Xiao Lin, tomorrow is the weekend, don't you want to go to Haicheng to see Xixi?" Han Haijun suddenly said.

"Ok?"

Lin Xiao was caught off guard, but he quickly reacted and said, "I was planning to go, but I have a report that I haven't finished yet and I have to hand it in on Monday, so... I can only go next week."

Han Haijun remembered that he was going to be promoted soon, and nodded: "Work is important!" He changed the subject and said: "However, you and Xixi just got married, so it's not a good idea to live apart for a long time! That girl is stubborn. Once she decided to be a singer, she plunged into it and didn't have a fixed rest time, so you can only trouble yourself to run between the two places more often!"

The words were sincere, and they showed the old father's concern for his little girl.

Lin Xiao was moved when he heard this, and said, "Dad, don't worry, I will go to Haicheng tomorrow... In fact, I am also worried about her, afraid that she can't take care of herself!"

Han Haijun looked pleased and said yes repeatedly, looking at him with more approval.

……

It was already nine o'clock when we came out of Jili Garden.

On the subway on the way home, Lin Xiao thought about it and decided to send a few WeChat messages to Han Xixi.

[I just had dinner at your house]

[Your parents asked me to go to Haicheng to see you, and I agreed]

[Remember this. If they ask you about it later, don’t tell them that you’ve exposed yourself.]

After waiting for a while and getting no reply, he put the phone back in his pocket.

Of course he wouldn't really go to Haicheng.

My goodness, a round trip high-speed rail ticket costs more than 400 yuan, and the plane ticket is even more expensive. Is there a fairy over there who is worth spending so much money!

I said that just now because I saw that Han Haijun had a kind heart and I couldn't bear to let him down.

When he got home, he lay down on the sofa.

After resting for a while, thinking that I had eaten too much tonight, I changed into sportswear and ran five kilometers.

I broke out in a sweat and felt refreshed all over.

I went upstairs and was about to take a shower when my phone rang with a WeChat notification.

Upon closer look, it was Han Xixi who replied.

【Xixibuxixi: What did you eat? 】

Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Okay, okay, I sent you three messages, and you only remembered the one about food, right?
Is this the point? !

Even though I was complaining in my heart, I still sent the photos I took tonight and replied patiently.

[Lin: Steamed sea bass, minced meat and eggplant, beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes, yam and pork ribs soup, and a cold preserved egg]

The other side responded quickly.

【希：It’s really rich】

No expressions, no punctuation.

Lin Xiao immediately realized that the other party might be in a bad mood.

【Lin: Have you eaten? 】

【希：Eat it】

【Lin: What did you eat? 】

[Xie: lunch box [bitter smile]]

Lin Xiao frowned.

[Lin: It’s almost ten o’clock, are you still working? ]

[Xia: Just finished, on the way back]

Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't blame Luo Ren.

On Friday night, she was enjoying delicious food and drinks at someone else's house, but her own daughter was still at work and could only eat boxed lunches!
Lin Xiao inexplicably felt like a thief.

After hesitating for a moment, he replied: "Go to bed early!"

Hundreds of kilometers away.

Han Xixi saw this message in the nanny car and wanted to talk to Lin Xiao about her troubles, but after hesitating for a long time, she swallowed her words back.

Next to him, assistant Chen Jiajia was so tired that she fell asleep.

Han Xixi looked at the photo sent by Lin Xiao, which was full of her favorite dishes, and suddenly felt a little aggrieved.

"I really want to go home..."
